Whareformer: Learning to Track What is Where in Long Egocentric Videos

The recently established 'Out of Sight, Not out of Mind' (OSNOM) task for egocentric videos focuses on tracking objects that are moved by the camera wearer, online, maintaining knowledge of instance locations throughout the video even when they leave the field of view or become heavily occluded. In this paper, we propose the first learning-based solution to the OSNOM task: Whareformer, a transformer-based model with two components: an updatable memory of established tracks and a track assignment module that associates observations with existing tracks in a feed-forward manner.

Probing Association Instability with Track-State Perturbations for Clip-Level Active Learning in Query-Propagation Multi-Object Tracking

Training query-propagation end-to-end multi-object tracking (MOT) models requires dense bounding-box and identity annotations across video sequences, making dataset construction expensive. Clip-level active learning reduces this cost by selecting video clips for annotation, but prior acquisition criteria based on output-level temporal uncertainty may miss clips whose informativeness comes from association instability in propagated track states.
